Anyway, this is my impressions. Bright, thin, annyoing. But lots of detail. So thats one good thing and three bad. Not a very good track record. Headroom talks about how these cans have mind blowing inpact. If anything I found them too be laid back So much so I almost fell asleep with them on my head. I wasn't even tired. Am I alone here? I don't think Grado are for me.

You must have ****ty equipment. The 225 is a great headphone.

A denon and a meta42 are crappy?

Now that you mention it you are probably right. But then again my 770 pro sounded great with my current system.

 

[Matthew-Spaltro]

Or maybe it's the meta42 and grado combo. Yeah, thats it

Or maybe it's the cd itself. Ozzy Osbournes first solo album.

is the Cd player plugged in?

i know that the grado's have very good impact all around from it's bass to it's sweet midrange

however if you were to compare it to your 770's, i think it may lack the subwoofer style seperation that closed cans can bring...

I know my mdr-v6's and my denon ahd-950's do sound like my dad's hgs 18 velodyne sub, but it the thing is this, the bass sound isn't exaggerated, but separate not quite as transparent as with the grado's i'd say...

could that be one of the reasons why you would think that?

and btw-- were the can's broken in?

I was just joking. LOL. This thread is classic.

Well I don't know what to tell you guys except that I find the Grado lacking in the mid range and I guess I am starting to sound like a broken record but I don't know what else to contribute to the thread. My Grado's are no longer mine. On to the Sennheiser HD 600.

Just curious, Matthew, but you may have been used to listening to headphones that actually overboost the midrange, in particular the lower midrange...
